I said it in the game thread but I'm disappointed in Sutter for breaking them out. This game is on him as well as a result of that since I think he tried to fix something that wasn't broken, and a result instead of having one effective line, he got none.
Not that Tkachuk may not have had his head in his ass still whenever he had to do something with the puck, but at least Lindholm and Gaudreau may have generated more offense then. They after all set up the only goal on the PP.
Balance of lines isn't possible with the roster with how the players relied on are playing. So put the best scoring line you could possibly assemble, and role with it.
